Marcos: We already have a master plan

MANILA, Philippines — President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. on Wednesday said there is an existing flood control master plan, noting that it has existed for decades.

During his inspection of the Agana Bridge in Tarlac City, Marcos said that while the master plan exists, the previous administration failed to execute it.

“We already have a master plan; it’s just never been executed,” he said.

“We’re only executing it now. We’ve had a master plan for decades. No one made it happen, only now. We are only starting it now," he said in both Filipino and English.
